however, that low crop estimates have
begun to receive less consideration,
and the liberal movement to ports and
overland has led many to believe that the
crop gathered in 1856 WAS considerably
larger than the very low estimates made
in some quarters, and by many q crop
equal TO that of last year has been
counted upon. As far as port re-
ceipts and the movement at the
counted interior towns is concerned,
the figures undoubtedly have been more
liberal than conservative crop estimates
would indicate if it were not also consid-
cred that transportation facilities during
most Of the present season have been ex-
ceptionally favorable to s rapid marketing
OF the crop. Another point to be consid-
cred also is that the price of cotton
throughout most of the present season
has been &c and sometimes g high
er than the same time last year.
With this point in view and the con-
tinued improvement Ct shipping facili les
which is taking place each year, it is not
strange that receipts have exceeded those
of last years 10 date. The total receipts
at ports up to February We're I Al, 5l3
bales, against 4 ,205,759 bales the preced-
ing year, an increase of 268,l54 bales.

His Personal Appearance.

Correspondence of the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Feb. I5.-On the 9TH day
Of December, 1868, three men were sworn
in as members Of the House of Represen-
tatives, whose names were destined to
stand high in the annals of the Republic.
These men were William B. Allison,
James G. Blaine, and James \. Garfield.
The first was thirty-four years Of age, the
other thirty-five and the last thirty-siX,
All had commenced life at the bottom
round of the ladder; all of them had been
farmers lads; all had studied law, and all
entered public life about the same time.
From the day they became acquainted
they remained fast friends, and
during the entire eighteen years
they were together in Congress,
that friendship WAS never broken or
married. After awhile their lives diverged
p little. Garfield became President,
Blaine, Secretary Of State, and Allison
kept his old place in the Senate. Up to
this time they had been, seemingly, neck
and neck in the race for fame, and when
the change came some of his friends said
that Allison had been OutStripped. But
time has told a slightly different story.
Garfield is dead, Blaine is private Citi-
zen, while Allison is still in public life
gaming rev laurPlG every year.

IMPROVED CAR HEATER.

A Novel Test Witnessed in Now York City.
NEW YORK, Feb. l9-A5out 500 people
stood in the rain for half an hour yester-
day at the foot of Vanderbilt avenue and
across the tracks of the Hudson River
Road, near the Forty-tifth street bridge,
to see rather novel test in the way of
an improved car heater. A patent stove
and boiler encased in steel armor which
weighed 700 pounds, was dropped from
the top OF the bridge on q pile of dry
goods boxes and intiAmmaole rubbish to
prove that even in the most violent
shocks the fire inside the heater could
not escape and catch the broken
parts of the car. The heater was a big
steel boiler, with stove inside, through
which some coils of pipe filed with water
passed. The pipes were to be run up and
down the cars sides in an endless coil,
and the heated water in them was to heat
the car. The test was apparently sue
cessful. The fire was lighted and the
heater tipped off the bridge, falling forty
feet without bursting or letting the coils
escape. The only effect of the shock was,
to break one of the inner pipe coils,7
which put out the fire 10 the heater. (

By O'Clock be is upstairs in his study
hard at work a. table strewn with legal
looking books and papers. The study is
the front room over the parlor and here
the Senator does most of his work.
Bookcases reach from floor to the cell
ngs and the furnishings are in carved
oak which seems to be the favorite
method of fitting Up the rooms. There
are not great many books, but a
glance at the shelves show that the
occupant has gathered about him for his
working library all the standard CyclOpG-
dias, reference books, works on political
economy and similar books that he can
lsy his hand on. He SPENDS many hours
in this room. Since the tragic death of
his wife about two years ago, he has gone
but little in society, and his social duties
devolve almost entirely on Mrs Grimes,
the wife of the late Senator.

Senator Allison is a lawyer by prOfeS-
sion, though ne has not pTaCticed for 6
quarter of g century. He was born in
Ohio, and spent his early years on his
fathers farm, working in summer and
tramping two or three miles to an old
field school in winter, He did not fare
much better than most farmers sons IN
those pioneer days of Ohio, but be showed
taste for study and his father had the
y good sense to allow him to crafty it, In
due time he went to college, first to
! Meadville, Pa, and later to the Western
Reserve College. After graduation he
studied and practiced law in his native
state, but without remarkable success,
and he determined to move furth west.
In 1857, when he was twenty-eight, he
settled In Dubuque, Iowa, as u good loCa-
ton, and he removed his sCant property
which consisted for the most part OF q
few law hooks, and hung out his Single
in that roWn. After events showed that
it WAS lucky move.
Dubuque was the home Of the late
Senator Grimes, and between that well
known public man and the struggling
young lawyer warm friendship soon
sprang up Allison became q frequett
visitor to the hOSpitable residence of the
not the only attraction, as he soon found
MpGt. Grimes had no children of his own,
z0Jut he mad living with him an adopted
daughter who bore his name. Sac was
beautiful girl, dark brunette, accom-
plished aud highly educated. The two
young people were naturally attracted
toward one another and the old Senator
made no objection. The courtship grew
apace and soon the day was set for the
marriage.
The first public Office ever held by Mr..
Allison was that of Representative in
Congress. The second was that of Sen
ator, and these are the onlytwo positions
he has ever held. He served four contin-
uous terms in the House, and from there
he went TO the Senate, where he is now
serving his third term Of six years, with
q likelihood of staying there SIS long as he
pleases. Mr.. Allison does not often make
9 speech in the Senate. As chairman of
the Senate appropriations commit
tee, much of his time is nece es-
Aarily occupied, but if anything relating
to revenue, taxation, or the tariff comes
ND, he generally finds the time to make at
least one exhaustive speech on II. 1t
would be good thing for Congress if the
Iowa Senator would speak oftener than
he does. He has strong mellow voice,
his delivery is earnest and impressive
and his handling of subject is master
ful. But he seems to appreciate the real
situation of affairs. 1t is not the orator
but the worker who makes the most i'm
preston in the craftsmanship of this age.
The real work of the Senate is done by
kscore of men; the rest are either lazy,
have no talent, or are Indifferent.
